This book presents the results of the research project G5055
'Development of novel methods for the prevention of pipeline
failures with security implications,' carried out in the framework
of the NATO Science for Peace and Security program, and explores
the lifecycle assessment of gas infrastructures. Throughout their
service lives, pipelines transporting hydrocarbons are exposed to
demanding working conditions and aggressive media. In long-term
service, material aging increases the risk of damage and failure,
which can be accompanied by significant economic losses and severe
environmental consequences. This book presents a selection of
complementary contributions written by experts operating in the
wider fields of pipeline integrity; taken together, they offer a
comprehensive portrait of the latest developments in this
technological area.

This book describes technical and practical aspects of pipeline
damage. It summarizes the phenomena, mechanisms and management of
pipeline corrosion in-service. The topics discussed include
pipelines fracture mechanics, damage mechanisms and evolution, and
pipeline integrity assessment. The concept of acceptable risk is
also elucidated and the future application of new knowledge
management tools is considered.
